I (surprisingly) rather enjoyed this cozy little romantic comedy / Christmas flick. I’m not sure I could, in good conscience, recommend it to anyone with a cynical bone anywhere at all in their body though. Which is me so… go figure. … Continue reading
House of Gucci is a movie I went to reluctantly… and, indeed, bailed on going to for three or four days until boredom drove me to the theater (it happens). I don’t have a fashion sense and, indeed, it may … Continue reading
